The local Co-op in Bunbury offers a wide range of essentials and local produce. Our village of Burland retains its farming heritage and today its mostly organic farms with fantastic local produce, so there’s plenty of fresh produce direct from our farms if you want to cook.

If you like the outdoor life we’ve got a bundle of fantastic walks on the doorstep. Walk out of the front door and join the public footpath across the countryside, take a trip to Beeston Castle and walk up through the ramparts to the old castle, call in at Peckforton Castle for a fabulous Bistro lunch and a look at the birds of prey or even book into their Landrover driving experience or their Crazy golf course. We’ve got 4 bikes available too if you want to explore the area on 2 wheels – gentle riding and no steep hills! Or maybe you just want a quiet retreat away from the madding crowd. There’s an 8 acre field for the kids to play in at the back, and with plenty of country wildlife, a garden full of birds, bees and butterflies and the occasional bat fly pasts (if you’re quiet at dusk) it’s a perfect retreat.

About Alison Zakers

We live on Pinfold Farm in the beautiful rural village of Burland and have converted our Barn as a luxury holiday home from home. We have lived here for 16 years and hope you will enjoy a stay in the countryside. We are on hand to help with anything should you need it however the barn is detached and private with fencing between the properties. Happy to help with planning your holiday so that you have the best time possible.

Why Alison Zakers chose Cheshire West & Chester

It's out in the countryside but not far from town for all your shopping. Nantwich is a historical market town with plenty of old buildings and private shops with regular markets. There's lot of farm shops for great food and brilliant old pubs with roaring fires and quirky interiors. We're a short drive from Wales for the beaches. A great location for a holiday with lots of potential for action packed days or a real quiet retreat.

What makes this barn unique

There's access to 4 bikes. A Wii machine with plenty of games, a ukulele, family games and tons of books and DVDs!

Peaceful retreat

We had a very busy time while staying at the Barn and it was lovely to come home to for our family of five adults. Having three bathrooms was great, all with a shower or tub! It was especially nice to sit around the big country kitchen table and eat our meals with the French doors open on the warm evenings. This was a convenient location for going to the Welsh coast, up to Liverpool and beyond and we liked the town of Nantwich, there were lots of shops, cafes and restaurants to check out. The Nag's Head, just down the road a couple of miles, was a very good local pub.

Owner's Response: Thanks for your visit. Pleased that you had the chance to explore the wider local area as well as our lovely old pub. Hope you get the chance to visit again soon.

Lovely, very comfortable and spacious

We went as a grown-up family and really appreciated the quality of the space, the downstairs layout and all the kitchen equipment and entertainment options. Upstairs was good - a bit awkward for the third couple given the twin - but Alison gave us extra mattresses and we knew that upfront. Having three bathrooms was a definite plus. Overall a great holiday base and one that's a fairly close walk to a good pub and an easy drive to lots of pleasant small towns and the Peak District should you want to go further afield.
